A St. Simeon Stylites Novena Chaplet - for the Salvation of Separated Brethren

A Saint Simeon Stylites Novena Chaplet

We pray with St. Simeon for the return to the Church of those who have forsaken Her, or have been separated from Her.*

One Our Father, one Hail Mother of God** (Hail Mary), and one Gloria for nine consecutive days, in worship of the Father, Jesus and the Holy Spirit for the protection and salvation of our sisters and brothers who have lost their way in the journey of faith.

~ 1 x Our Father
~ 1 x Hail Mother of God (Hail Mary)
~ 1 x Glory Be


** - "Theotokos Virgin, rejoice, Mary full of grace, the Lord is with you. Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb, for you have borne the Saviour of our souls." As recited in the Eastern Churches .

*** - Based on a prayer of St. John Damascene.
